Marianne LaCroix

MARIANNE LACROIX started writing as a child in elementary school. Her first book was a story about a Christmas underwater featuring an eel, a whale and an octopus which she read to the first grade class to a memorable round of applause. She grew up in New Jersey in a small town located between Philadelphia and Atlantic City where she received her Bachelor's degree in English Literature from Glassboro State (aka Rowan University). Shortly afterward, she moved to Southwest Georgia. There she went back to school for nursing. Currently Mari is a nurse working in an urgent care center.

Mari has written several short stories, novellas and novels and has received numerous recognitions for her writing such as two Romantic Times BOOKclub Reviewer Choice nominees, a Paranormal Excellence Award for Romantic Literature (PEARL) Honorable Mention, and a Cupid and Psyche Award (CAPA). Mari loves reading, surfing the web, hanging out with her family and friends, and gossiping on the phone.
